Chapter 124: I Want Revenge!
This kind of thing is an airship, Qin Shouzhuo has never built it before, let alone built it, he has never seen it, what are the precautions for building an airship, the only reference is the experience of the old shipwrights recruited in advance. After the selection of steel with a substantial increase in strength as the keel and ribs of the ship, the performance and precautions of the ship must have changed significantly, and the experience of the old workers is not accurate, and it is really a matter of crossing the river by feeling the stones.
The lack of basic education and the backwardness of the industrial system and education system have jointly caused a big problem, that is, Qin Shouchuang's new ship parameters cannot even rely on mathematics to calculate, it is not too difficult, but there are no such mathematical tools at all. Qin Shouzhuo naturally knew these mathematical tools, but he was limited to knowing that there was such a thing, after all, he was just a soldier, and he didn't need these mathematical models specially used for design, and the formulas used to calculate ballistic parameters were recorded.
The airship of the Elis World, the largest model of the civilian cargo airship, has a maximum take-off weight of more than 5,500 tons and has 5 masts, while the Baron Baron is only 3,600 tons when fully loaded, which is much smaller than the large cargo airship. However, regardless of whether it is large or small, the airship of Elis World tries to remain level in any situation, even during the ascent and descent phases.
If the airship is unstable, it is quite difficult to recover, it is difficult to adjust the center of gravity, and it is even more difficult to control and recover, because the speed cannot be fast, otherwise the huge stress will tear the hull apart. The main power of a traditional airship is the sails, and maintaining the level does not have a detrimental effect on her, but for the Baron Barbia, whose main power is already autonomous power, the impact is significant. The owner's surging, freely adjustable propulsion, what kind of tricks can be played in the air, just look at the plane.
A 3,600-ton flying ship, even if the engine thrust is large, it is impossible to achieve the same maneuver as an airplane, and the strength requirements for the ship itself are too high, which is not the degree that an all-wood cargo ship can achieve. The war is urgent, and there are often situations when fighting a war, and military equipment generally allows a certain degree of violent operation, so the structural redundancy is much more than that of civilian equipment. With the new steel keel and ribs, the structural strength has been greatly increased, which is also the confidence of Qin Shouzhuo to dare to command the Baron Babia to play diving, pulling up, and big loops.
Then the dock inspection report gave Qin Shouzhuo a slap in the face.
All external equipment damage is nothing, even if 70% of the armor in the whole body is close to or above the fatigue limit and needs to be replaced, even if 1/3 of the magic circuits of the front and rear main guns reach the replacement standard, even if two of the four electric motors are burned and two are super fatigued, it is a miracle to be able to fly back, even if half of the mana transmission pipes of the whole ship need to be replaced. These are nothing, and the worst thing is that the keel is deformed.
Dive, pull up, and make a sharp U-turn are not something that any model can do on an airplane, let alone a big guy with a length of tens of meters and a total weight of 3,600 tons. When Qin Shouzhuo personally went into the cabin to check, he was also taken aback by the large deformation and distortion, the Baron Baron did not disintegrate in the air at that time, it was really blessed by the God of Light.
Qin Shouzhuo also had to be surprised by his boldness at that time, the high-speed air maneuver could actually scrap the ship, and the scheduled retaliation could only be postponed indefinitely. The maintenance of the Baron Babia has become the biggest focus, the largest new ship, if you say give up, you will give up, who opened this mouth, but the keel is so seriously deformed, and there is really no repair value, let alone continue to fight, even if it is changed to a cargo ship, there is no value.
In the end, it was Qin Shou who made the plan, stopped repairing, dismantled the equipment that could still be used, and directly built the next ship. This decision may not be the best, but Qin Shouzhuo knows that at this moment, even if it is a wrong decision, it is better than no decision. After eating the evil consequences of scrapping the new ship after using it once, it is naturally impossible for the new ship to continue the design of the old ship, and a major revision of the design is put on the agenda.
On the first Baron Baron, the all-metal keel and ribs withstood the test, and although it was badly deformed during the high-G maneuver, it still kept its hull intact, and if it was still an all-wooden hull, I am afraid it would have disintegrated in the air long ago. Then there was the new main gun system, high rate of fire, high power, rotating turret, these new innovations proved to be excellent, but as a part of the gun body of the classic design, it almost burned out in high-frequency work. Then the four electric motors, which were the main driving force, also showed remarkable reliability, and the two motors in the tail continued to push the Baron Babia back to the dock on the banks of the Babia River despite the high maneuverability and severe damage.
These parts, which proved to be reliable in battle, could be retained, and Qin Shouzhuo was more prepared to develop them further. Yes, the next capital ship, Qin Shouzhuo is already ready to go to the all-steel structure, and the timber is only used to lay inconsequential places such as decks and interior decoration. No matter how confused the shipbuilding engineer was, this new ship was destined to be unable to catch up with Qin Shouchou's retaliation.
Yes, Qin Shouzhuo wants to take revenge.
From the time he first arrived in this world, Victor Mu, as a high-ranking priest of the Holy See, had inexplicably set his sights on Qin Shouzhuo and Raphael, and cleaned up Qin Shouzhuo in the imperial capital. Although it was cleaned up by Qin Shouzhuo later, after all, it was not in full view of everyone, Qin Shouzhuo still felt unhappy, and after that, the Holy See pressed the Lawrence Empire to pass a series of unequal treaties, and even opened the self-propelled magic cannon that had been said to be exclusive to the Imperial Army to the Legion of Light.
In the years that followed, although it was said that it was quiet for a few years on the surface, in reality the threat of the Holy See was everywhere. Elsa Camilla's life is relatively simple, constantly leading the group to fight the air thieves in various places, playing the prestige of the Babian mercenary group, so that she can negotiate the money to buy the road, so she also took a gang of air thieves controlled by the Holy See.
Not to mention the changes in Andy Orlanda's family, this pot is definitely the back of the Holy See, the Earl of Feibudach picked up a life in the first battle, and has been receiving shelter in Lawrence City, and by the way, he followed Qin Shouzhuo to practice swordsmanship, and he has never shown the intention of returning to the territory to seize the throne, but he has also suffered dozens of assassinations.
After Raphael was rescued from the county of Faybdach, he was quiet for only three months, and the Duke Jefferson's family was caught in a great scuffle about the dukedom and the possibly owned territories. Duke Berwick Jefferson was in an extremely disadvantageous position from the beginning because the elders blamed Raphael's rebellious behavior of disobeying the family's decision because the elders blamed Raphael's rebellious behavior of disobeying the family's decision, and also fled with Qin Shouzhuo, injuring His Excellency Victor Mu. After struggling to support it for a year, Rafael finally couldn't help but go back to help, but there was no result until now.
All the way to this big war. Qin Shouzhuo just wanted to come out and fight casually and get some information to write an internship report, but he still ambushed the Holy See's troops and suffered heavy losses. Although it was a mistake to break the Holy See's conspiracy to destroy the industrial city of Babia, and to catch this attacking force by surprise, this force was originally here to attack Qin Shouzhuo's territory, and the operation was accidentally destroyed.
Look! Look!
The above five paragraphs mean that the Holy See has already cheated Qin Shouclumsy five times, even the clay people also have three points of earthy nature! If you don't retaliate back, you will still be weak and bullied!
Retaliation is necessary, but how to retaliate is worth discussing, in the face of such a huge power of the Holy See, it is certainly not advisable to openly confront, you can only secretly ambush, or openly attack those parts that do not see the light. Qin Shou thought about it for a while, and ordered Andy Orlando to be recruited back, he couldn't work in vain, even if he was revenge, he couldn't take revenge purely for the sake of revenge, he always had to get a little gain, if he didn't have any other goals, he would simply kill the Orlando Earldom and slaughter the acting lord's family.
This is a backup plan, there is no way to do it, if there is another way, Qin Shouzhuo will definitely not fight the idea of the Orlando Earlland. It's not that the strength is not enough, but the foundation is insufficient. It's very simple to fight, a few flying ships are airborne and raided, I don't believe that there is a team in that ghost place that can stop the Babia mercenary group, the problem is after it is defeated. Andy Orlando is now at most a government-in-exile, relying on Qin Shouchou's protection to survive, and he can't even get a decent civil official under his hands, that guy himself did everything to avoid martial arts training, and cultural classes are also a treatment, and he really deserves to be described as not learning and not knowing. If you want to talk about martial arts and fighting spirit, you can still eat by relying on talent, but literature, mathematics, social management, etc. can only be blind.
In a word, the Duke of Orlando can take it, but if it can't be eaten, it is better to maintain the status quo for the time being, and let Andy's guy continue to hang outside, anyway, Andy will not die, and his uncle will always be the lord's agent.
If you want to say that the preferred target, it is naturally the place where the equipment of the army that attacked Qin Shoushu was produced, cutting off the supply of new equipment to the Holy See, and causing heavy damage to the upgrading of the combat effectiveness of the Holy See. If you want to hit a snake for seven inches, you will naturally retaliate against the other party's vital points, otherwise after you spend a lot of effort to retaliate, the other party will not feel anything, which will be embarrassing.
It is precisely in this way that after returning to the Barony of Babia, Qin Shouzhuo immediately began the design of the next generation of capital ships, as well as the magic transformation of the transport ship that would be used in the next retaliation operation. Elsa Camilla, on the other hand, took this opportunity to lead a group of air thieves along the direction of the arrival of the enemy army in Fang Shan, looking for clues about those special equipment.
